The Wind Chill are the professional Ultimate team based out of Minnesota. The Wind Chill are heading into their sixth season in the American Ultimate Disc League (AUDL), coming off a 8-6 regular season record in 2018.

After serving as the title sponsor in 2017, Omar Ansari, owner and founder of Surly Brewing Company, purchased the Minnesota Wind Chill in August of 2017 and is now the majority owner of the franchise. The new ownership group also includes Ben Feldman, who both played and served as General Manager of the Wind Chill in 2017, as well as Jim Mott, MVP of Surly Brewing Company.

The team competes in a 14-game regular season and will hosted the majority of their 2018 home games at the National Sport Center Stadium in Blaine, which was renovated with new state of the art turf during the off-season. See directions here.
